An incredible barn find that was in the same ownership from 1965 to 2016, this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette is one of 199 equipped with the legendary RPO Z06 Special Performance Equipment package and one of only 63 produced with the RPO N03 36-gallon fuel tank. It is in sensational condition after an extensive body-off restoration completed in 2017 after being kept in storage for 51 years. The Z06 combined the most powerful Corvette engine, the L84 327/360 HP Rochester fuel-injected small-block V-8, with a mandatory close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission and 3.70 Positraction rear end. Heavy-duty springs and shocks and a larger-diameter front sway bar were included, but it was the Z06’s brake system that truly separated it from other production Corvettes. It featured a vacuum-assisted dual-circuit master cylinder actuating sintered-metallic brake shoes and finned cast-iron drums with five holes in the drum faces; the backing plates incorporated screened openings through which rubber “elephant ear” scoops directed cool air drawn in by internal fans attached to the hubs. The Z06 was the hairiest Corvette ever built, but its success was fleeting as Chevrolet management clamped down on factory-backed racing efforts, halting production at 199 units just as it was proving its mettle on the nation’s race tracks. This extraordinary 1963 Z06 coupe retains its original matching-numbers driveline and includes CCAS/Grenning engine-stamp affirmation. It was displayed in discovery condition in Bloomington Gold's Legends Row display and at Corvettes at Carlisle in 2016, and then again at Carlisle in 2017 after its restoration was completed. Finished in the factory-correct color combination of Ermine White with a red interior, this rare Z06 is documented with the dealer invoice and deposit check receipt from 1965, as well as a three-ring binder with old photos, maintenance records and other historic documents.
